My wife...

[Hertsblue]

On visiting the Polish Army Museum in Warsaw a few years ago my wife picked out, without prompting, a Scud missile launcher and a Hanomag half-track.

And the Jesuits thought they knew something about indoctrination!

I doubt mine would manage to identify either, but at least she understands that not every tracked vehicle is a tank (which is better than many journalists). She made me a "That's Not My Tank" book* for my birthday, featuring a bizarre variety of vehicles that weren't tanks, and a Challenger II for the "That's My Tank" at the end. I didn't tell her that I prefer Soviet tanks :-)

My son has a few of these, he loves'em. 


FSN's book would be very short:

Page 1  "That's not my tank...it's not a Centurion."
Page 2  "That's not my tank...it's not a Centurion."
Page 3...well you get the idea...

I've printed this off for bed time reading next time the grandkids visit.

Not sure but I would bet that there would be one rivet short in the bag

Ikea are a bit like Warlord Games. I have had several tanks and armoured cars from them now with tracks for the same side of a vehicle  What's more annoying is that they take their time replacing the offending article. They barely admit they are at fault.

Aren't you supposed to read it at exactly six p.m. come what may?
